How can a naturally anxious person keep from worrying while laid up in bed with a broken ankle and leg?

  • If your car drives, and it's not really old, you probably don't have to buy a whole new car to deal with whatever issue is making it "sound funny". Maybe there's nothing wrong at all, your mom just thinks it sounds funny cuz she's not used to driving it? I just feel like, if the car actually goes, it's unlikely to be anything catastrophic.

    Do you have pain meds? I think that will help reduce the stress on you, cuz constant pain can make everything seem worse than it is. I also wonder if you have any anxiety meds? If not, I can recommend CBD/CBN for a very gentle calming effect, and It doesn't make you all high. Maybe you can talk your Mom into getting you some.

    I'm sorry you're hurt. Do you have anyone that can come hang out with you? Seems like being in pain and stuck alone can make things seem worse too. I wish I could help you more to feel better. Good luck!

  • Just finished it. It had some very challenging moments, and extremely clever puzzles. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

    Several times I thought "this must be the end," but it kept going. Then I was sad when I got to the actual end.

  • Listen, I took autoship in highschool, my dad talked me into doing an engine swap on his 1969 Volvo and got me to do all kinds of maintenance on his 1955 Chevy pickup truck, all before I turned 18. Out of highschool I got a job in a shop that specialized in Mazda rotary engines. I have worked on so many cars for money and as a favor for friends and I can tell you I have been similarly defeated so many times by similar simple things. It happens to everybody sooner or later, even guys with giant toolboxes and years of experience. Sometimes you just need help, and that's ok.

    I'm proud of you, cuz I know how these kinds of jobs can be, and how exhausting it is just getting hard to reach bolts undone. You're not a failure, you are great. Bongo Stryker says so.

  • Do people still take the Farmer's Almanac seriously? These weather predictions are based on things like sunspots and observations on the bushiness of squirrel tails. In a word, it's pseudoscience, and it is accurate in the same way as astrology.

    I am of the age that I remember helping my mom set the time on her VCR so it would stop blinking 12:00. Now I need my kids to help me with stuff they consider pretty basic.
